Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and manufactured
to the highest of standards and should be treated
with great care. The suggestions below will help you
to enjoy your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and humidity!
Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain min-
erals that will corrode electronic circuits. Never-
theless, should your phone become wet,
disconnect it immediately from the power sup-
ply to avoid electric shock. Do not place your
phone (even to dry it) on/in a source of heat
such as a microwave oven, oven or radiator.
The phone may become overheated and possi-
bly explode.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty ar-
eas. Its moving parts may become damaged
and the casing may become deformed and dis-
coloured.
• Do not store your phone in hot environments
(e.g. vehicle instrument panel in the summer).
High temperatures can shorten the life of elec-
tronic devices, damage batteries and warp or
melt certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold environments.
When the phone warms up again (to its normal
ambient temperature), moisture can form inside
the phone, which may damage electronic circuit
boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone. Rough
handling can damage internal circuit boards!
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents,
or strong detergents to clean the phone!
The suggestions given above apply equally to your
phone, battery, charger and all accessories. If any
of these parts is not working properly, obtain fast
and reliable help at our service centres (p. 10).
SAR
European Union (RTTE) and
international (ICNIRP)
INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE / SPECIFIC
ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDE-
LINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiv-
er. It is designed not to exceed the limits for expo-
sure to radio waves recommended by international
guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and in-
clude safety margins designed to assure the protec-
tion of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and was adopted
into the European Standard EN 50360 and into oth-
er national standards. The CE mark demonstrates
that the EU requirements are met.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested
at the ear was 0.42 W/kg
1
. As mobile devices offer
a range of functions, they can be used in positions
other than the head, such as directly on the body.
In this case, the limits are met too.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device
while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum level required to reach the network.
The World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of mobile
devices. They note that if you nevertheless want to re-
duce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the
length of calls or using a 'hands-free' device to keep
the mobile phone away from the head and body.
Additional Information can be found on the web-
sites of the World Health Organization
(www.who.int/emf) or Siemens
(www.siemens.com/mobilephones).
1 The tests are carried out in accordance with
international guidelines for testing.
